Hi Jackie, I can understand your concern. Eyesight is precious and it is hard to know what requires time to heal and what might be permanent. Feeling rushed by the doctor doesn't help to allay those concerns. I read in this article that multiple surgeries are sometimes necessary.

I'm tagging @imallears @jaguar737 and @dsh33782 on this discussion as they have some experience with retinal detachment surgery.

@bjackie, do you know if you had some scarring before the surgery?
